*Faculty Position in Ecological Impacts of Climate Change*
In support of the Purdue University initiative in Climate Change
Research and the Purdue Climate Change Research Center (PCCRC), the
College of Agriculture (CoA) and the College of Science (CoS) invite
applicants for a tenure track faculty position, at the rank of Assistant
Professor, in the area of Ecological Impacts of Climate Change. We seek
candidates who are studying impacts of climate change on the ecology of
terrestrial and/or aquatic ecosystems at the population, community or
ecosystem level and at landscape, regional or global scales. Research
could include addressing such questions as how climate change will
influence species distributions and abundances, conservation practices
and/or population viability. Experiments and modeling that identify
thresholds of responses of communities and species to climate
variability and change also are of interest. We seek to expand the
strengths of the PCCRC and the related Purdue Interdisciplinary Center
for Ecological Sustainability, with its focus on population, community
and landscape ecology, and to complement strengths in biogeochemistry,
atmospheric science, and climate modeling. These Centers also are
working with the Purdue Discovery Park Center for the Environment, which
brings more diverse talents to bear on environmental issues including
engineering and economics. We anticipate a joint appointment between
the departments of Forestry and Natural Resources (FNR) and Biological
Sciences.
Candidates must have completed the Ph.D. and postdoctoral experience is
preferred. The appointee is expected to develop and maintain a
vigorous, externally funded research program and to teach at the
undergraduate and graduate levels. Screening of applications will begin
on November 15, 2005, and the search will continue until the position is
filled. Additional information on the PCCRC can be found at:
http://www.purdue.edu/climate. Electronic submission of applications is
preferred at http://www.science.purdue.edu/COALESCE/. Mail applications
can be sent to Chair, Search Committee, Ecological Impacts of Climate
Change Position, Purdue Climate Change Research Center, 500 Central
Drive, West Lafayette, IN 47907-2022. Specific questions regarding the
position can be directed to Dr. Bryan Pijanowski (bpijanow@purdue.edu
<mailto:bpijanow@purdue.edu> or 765-496-2215). /Purdue// University is
an Equal Access/Equal Opportunity /Affirmative Action Employer. Women
and minorities are encouraged to apply./
